HPE MSA 2060 & 2070: The Modular SAN Storage in UAE
The HPE Modular Smart Array (MSA) 2060 and 2070 Gen7 series represents a highly scalable and modular SAN ecosystem designed to meet the evolving data demands of the UAE’s enterprise and government sectors. This portfolio allows organizations in Dubai and Abu Dhabi to independently source high-performance hardware, advanced intelligence licenses, and mission-critical HPE Tech Care support, or deploy them as unified, pre-configured bundles. While the MSA 2060 remains an industry standard for reliable virtualization, the MSA 2070 Gen7 provides a necessary architectural leap for 2026 workloads, delivering over 516,000 IOPS and supporting 32Gb Fibre Channel and 24Gb SAS connectivity to eliminate performance bottlenecks. By combining an all-inclusive licensing model with the latest Gen7 ASIC technology, the MSA series ensures that UAE businesses can achieve extreme performance density and disaster-ready resilience with simplified procurement and no hidden costs.
